Abstract
What defines excellent lighting design for humans and animals? The answer to the above question is more than complex. It is not enough nowadays to design a project to make it aesthetically pleasing. Nor is it sufficient to create nicely lit environments, or simply to achieve the light levels required by the lighting norms or standards. With the new scientific research of the last few decades that relates directly or indirectly to the lighting field, we as professionals cannot afford to ignore the medical, biological or environmental facts which will have huge future implications on humans as well as on flora and fauna. It is our responsibility as experts to be aware of the latest research, continue our professional development by extending our existing knowledge, and frequently question our approach towards the projects we are involved in.
